From the recording You're A Lion, Ain't That Dandy
Lady Bugs and Dandy Lions
Lyrics
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
You’re the king of the savannah,
I watch out from my verandah
You hunt impalas through the grass,
I have to fill mine up with gas.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy!
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
You’re the cat that roars the loudest,
And your posse is the proudest
I honk and scream when I’m in traffic.
But on my feet I’m diplomatic.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy! Gggrrrowwwl!
If I was lyin’ in a zoo,
A happy lion, through and through,
I’d say I feel feline as you
But I’d be lyin’, it ain’t true.
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy.
You’re a lion, ain’t that dandy.
You’re a lion, grrrrowwwwl, I think that’s dandy!
Un, deux, trois, quatre!
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
Ka-roo-koo, ka-roo-koo-koo-koo-koo
